Pre-Race
What can I say, I really didn't feel well prepared for this one, or maybe I just didn't uberprepare like I normally do. It had been a very busy week at work and I didn't get to bed until late both Thursday and Friday night. As a result, I wasn't as well rested as I usually am nor was I properly hydrated. I got up at 4AM, got dressed, had my coffee and headed to Decatur. I wanted to arrive in time to set up at a convenient location near the start of the race to place a chair with my gels and other race gear. I also still needed to pick up my race packet.
